Leaking after washer is turned on

Dishwasher Repair
1

Hi All,

I need help identifying which parts to purchase. I have a 2 year old washer that just leak from the bottom when it’s running. I’ve checked the drainage and inlet line and it’s ok. I looked underneath the washer and notice water was leaking from middle of the tub. I think it’s the sump pump gasket or the volute seal. Any suggestion?

Also, what’s a sump tab and what does it do or suppose to do?

Any help would be appreciated…

Hi John,

In order to provide the most accurate advise I need the complete model number of the dishwasher. The number you posted is the serial number.

Hi John,

A sump tab is a part of a locking mechanism.

Both parts you mentioned could cause a water leak. The best thing is to remove the dishwasher from the cabinet to find out which part is wrong exactly.
